There's not a note or a nuance out of placeanywhere on this record, which featured 35 of themost exciting minutes of instrumental music inany category that one could purchase in 1962(and it's no slouch multiple decades out, either). "IGot a Woman" is the single best indicator of howsuperb this record is and this band was --listening to this track, it's easy to forget that thesong ever had lyrics or ever needed them, BookerT. Jones' organ and Steve Cropper's guitarserving as more-than-adequate substitutes forany singer. Their version of "Twist and Shout" isevery bit as satisfying. Even "Mo' Onions," aneffort to repeat the success of "Green Onions,"doesn't repeat anything from the earlier trackexcept the tempo, and Jones and Cropper bothcome up with fresh sounds within the sameframework. "Behave Yourself" is a beautifullywrought piece of organ-based blues that givesJones a chance to show off some surprisinglynimble-fingered playing, while "Stranger on theShore" is transformed into a piece of prime soulmusic in the group's hands. Just when it seemslike the album has turned in all of the surprises inrepertory that it could reasonably deliver, it endswith "Comin' Home Baby," a killer jazz piece onwhich Steve Cropper gets to shine, his guitarsuddenly animated around Jones' playing, hisquietly trilled notes at the crescendo some of themost elegant guitar heard on an R&B record up tothat time. - Bruce Eder, AllMusicGuide
